Technical specifications, equipment, delivery, and warranty: find every detail, verified against official LOBOO documentation, below.

Description LOBOO L18S ECE approved auxiliary light – 21,000 lumens, white to yellow from the bezel

The LOBOO L18S is the pinnacle of the LOBOO auxiliary light range: 21,000 lumens, six LEDs per light, and color temperature shifting from white to yellow without the need for lens covers.

ECE R149 Approved

Certified E57*149R00/08*1206, UN Regulation R149.00 Class B for right-hand traffic, with both dipped and main beams approved and the mark stamped on the body. Most aftermarket spotlights, however, are sold with the clause "for off-road use only."

Twenty-one thousand lumens, manageable

The dipped beam alone covers 5,000 to 16,500 lumens; with both main and dipped beams together, it reaches 21,000. For comparison, a motorcycle's original LED stops around 1,500.

The eight levels are what make this power usable: in the city or behind a car, you can lower it to the minimum instead of turning it off. Power consumption follows the intensity, from 50 to 165 W for the dipped beam and from 65 to 210 W with both beams.

From white to yellow, while riding

On other spotlights, yellow light is achieved with a lens cover that must be installed manually. Here, the color temperature changes electronically from 6000 K to 3000 K, across eight levels, by pressing and rotating the same ring that adjusts brightness. With fog coming and going, you don't have to stop.

Reflector, not just a lens

The L18S uses a cup reflector that distributes light more evenly across the illuminated area: less central hot spot, more real coverage of the roadway and edges.

One ring for everything

The aluminum alloy ring is installed on the clutch control. Press the main button to switch from dipped to main beam, rotate for brightness, press and rotate for color temperature. A dedicated button controls the passing flash.

Holding the horn for two-tenths of a second activates the warning flash, in addition to the three autonomous strobe modes.

Construction

Six non-replaceable LEDs per light, glass lens, entirely CNC machined aluminum alloy body with dissipation fins and IP68 rating. At 210 W, heat management is not a detail: the system automatically reduces power if the temperature rises, and the circuit is protected against reverse polarity and overvoltage.

Mounting

Multi-axis adjustable bracket. The included clamps cover tubes from 22, 25, and 28 mm; those for 32 and 38 mm are separate accessories, as indicated by LOBOO.

Diameter 108.4 mm, depth 86.5 mm, total height 154.8 mm with bracket.

Why choose it
  • 21,000 lumens: the highest value in the approved LOBOO range. Low beam from 5,000 to 16,500 lm, up to 21,000 with high beam.
  • White or yellow from the bezel: from 6000 K to 3000 K while driving, across eight levels, without needing to apply lens covers.
  • ECE R149.00 Class B approved: both low beam and high beam approved, downloadable certificate.
  • Cup reflector: more uniform light distribution, less central hotspot.
  • Six LEDs and glass lens: not polycarbonate, with a fully CNC-machined aluminum body.
  • Flashing with the horn: plus three independent strobe modes and a dedicated button for overtacking flashing.
Who is it recommended for

L18S or L16?

These are the two LOBOO headlights with electronically adjustable color temperature. They differ in power and optics.

  • L18S: 21,000 lumens, six LEDs, and a cup reflector for more uniform coverage. Draws up to 210 W.
  • L16: 19,000 lumens, five LEDs, and a high-efficiency lens with a sharp cut-off. Draws up to 190 W and is more compact.

If your motorcycle's electrical system is already loaded with heated grips and a heated jacket, the 20 W difference matters.

Two accessories worth considering:

  • Q7 Quick Release Mount— detach the headlights without tools, with a key lock and waterproof connector.
  • LC081 CAN-Bus Controller— control the headlights from the original BMW Wonder Wheel. Tell us your model and year: the correct cable depends on the motorcycle.

Check the diameter of the tube at the exact mounting point: the included clamps cover 22, 25, and 28 mm; 32 and 38 mm clamps are purchased separately.

Documents and manufacturer

Installation and Use

  • Connect via relay with dedicated fuse, never branched from an existing circuit.
  • Check the electrical system margin: up to 210 W with both beams active is the highest load in the range, especially if you already use heated grips or a heated jacket.
  • Adjust the beam inclination so that it does not dazzle oncoming traffic: this is the most important check and the most often overlooked.
  • The approval concerns the device. The conditions of installation and use on the vehicle remain subject to the Highway Code.

How does it work, in detail?

Approved, not “for off-road use only”

Approved, not “for off-road use only”

The L18S is type-approved under ECE E57*149R00/08*1206, UN Regulation R149.00 Class B, with both dipped and main beam approved and the marking stamped on the housing.

It's the difference that matters: almost all auxiliary lights on the market are sold with a clause limiting their use to off-road conditions.

Twenty-one thousand lumens, and eight levels to control them

Twenty-one thousand lumens, and eight levels to control them

The low beam alone ranges from 5,000 to 16,500 lumens; with both beams, it reaches 21,000. A motorcycle’s original headlight delivers only around 1,500.

The number alone isn’t enough: it’s the eight levels that make this power usable. In the city or behind a car, turn it down to the lowest setting instead of switching it off.

From white to yellow, without stopping

From white to yellow, without stopping

On the other spotlights, yellow light is achieved with a lens cover that you fit by hand: you stop, attach it, and put it back in your pocket when the fog is gone.

Here, the color temperature changes electronically from 6000 K to 3000 K across eight levels by pressing and turning the same dial. While riding, with gloves on.

Bowl reflector: distributed, not concentrated light

Bowl reflector: distributed, not concentrated light

The L18S uses a cup reflector instead of just a lens. The illuminated area is more uniform: less of a hot spot in the center and more actual coverage of the roadway and edges.

It’s the difference you notice on hairpin bends and dirt roads, where you need to see to the sides, not just straight ahead.

A single adjustment ring on the clutch control

A single adjustment ring on the clutch control

The aluminum alloy ring attaches near the clutch lever: your thumb can reach it without releasing your grip, and an indicator shows the active level.

Press the main button to switch from low beam to high beam, rotate it to adjust brightness, and press and rotate it to adjust the color temperature. A dedicated button controls the passing flash.

The horn also becomes a visual signal

The horn also becomes a visual signal

The wiring includes a cable that connects to the original horn control: holding it down for two-tenths of a second also activates the warning flash.

A combined audible and visual signal is much more noticeable than either alone. Three independent strobe modes remain available: alternating, simultaneous, and sequential.

You’re LED and have glass lenses, not polycarbonate.

You’re LED and have glass lenses, not polycarbonate.

Each headlight features six non-replaceable LEDs behind a clear glass lens. The glass does not yellow when exposed to UV rays and better withstands gravel thrown up by the front wheel.

The housing is made of fully CNC-machined aluminum alloy, with solid-machined cooling fins.

IP68 and intelligent thermal control

IP68 and intelligent thermal control

IP68 protection: heavy rain, fording, and washing are no problem. At 210 W, however, heat management matters just as much as water resistance.

The housing and driver automatically reduce power when the temperature rises, preventing luminous-flux drop-off during long stretches at low speed. The circuit is protected against reverse polarity and overvoltage.

Adjustable on multiple axes, wherever there is a pipe

Adjustable on multiple axes, wherever there is a pipe

The bracket rotates on multiple axes and attaches to handlebars, crash bars, or dedicated mounts, with no drilling or permanent modifications to the motorcycle.

The included clamps fit 22, 25, and 28 mm tubes. Dedicated clamps for 32 and 38 mm are required and sold separately: measure the diameter at the exact mounting point, as the cross-section may vary along crash bars.

Two accessories that transform everyday use

Two accessories that transform everyday use

The Q7 quick-release mount lets you remove the lights without tools, with a keyed lock and waterproof connector: useful in the city and on technical sections where branches brush against the lenses.

The LC081 CAN bus controller brings control to the original BMW Wonder Wheel without adding switches. Both are sold separately.

FAQs

For more information, please see our FAQ.

Is the LOBOO L18S approved for road use?

Yes. The L18S has ECE approval E57*149R00/08*1206 under UN Regulation R149.00 Class B for right-hand traffic, with both dipped-beam and main-beam functions approved and the marking stamped on the housing. The complete certificate can be downloaded from the product page.

You are responsible for verifying the installation requirements set out in the Highway Code for your vehicle, starting with beam orientation.

How many lumens does the L18S really produce?

The LOBOO specification sheet states 21,000 lumens for the pair with low and high beams active together, and 5,000 to 16,500 lumens with only the low beam.

These values refer to the pair, not to a single headlight. For comparison, a motorcycle’s original LED headlight produces around 1,500 lumens.

How do you change the color temperature from white to yellow?

By pressing and turning the dial installed near the clutch control. The temperature changes from 6000 K white to 3000 K yellow across eight levels, while rotation alone adjusts the brightness.

It is an electronic switch: there is no lens cover to install or remove, so you can switch to yellow while riding when you encounter fog or rain.

What’s the difference between the L18S and the LOBOO L16?

These are the two LOBOO headlights with electronically adjustable color temperature. The L18S has six LEDs with cup reflectors, delivers up to 21,000 lumens, and draws up to 210 W. The L16 has five LEDs with high-efficiency lenses, delivers up to 19,000 lumens, draws up to 190 W, and is more compact.

If the motorcycle’s electrical system is already being used by heated grips or a heated jacket, the 20 W difference should be taken into consideration.

What pipe diameters does it fit?

The included clamps fit 22, 25, and 28 mm tubes. Dedicated clamps are required for 32 and 38 mm tubes; LOBOO sells them separately.

Measure the diameter exactly where you want to mount the lights: the cross-section of crash bars may vary along the tube. If you’re unsure, send us the motorcycle’s make, model, and year.

Does installation require modifications to the motorcycle?

No. The bracket clamps onto the tube with the collar and rotates on multiple axes, so it can be mounted on handlebars, crash bars, or existing brackets without drilling or permanent modifications.

The only work involves the electrical system. If you are not familiar with it, have the installation carried out by a qualified technician.

How much power does it draw, and can my electrical system handle it?

From 50 to 165 W in low beam and from 65 to 210 W with both beams active: this is the highest load in the LOBOO range. Power consumption follows the selected level, so at lower levels it uses much less than the maximum.

They must be connected through a relay with a dedicated fuse, never spliced into an existing circuit. If you already use heated grips or a heated vest, check your motorcycle's alternator capacity.

Can I control them using my BMW’s original control dial?

Yes, with the LOBOO LC081 CAN-Bus controller, sold separately. It allows you to control the lights using the original Wonder Wheel without adding switches to the handlebars.

The connection cable varies by model: send us the motorcycle model and year before ordering, and we’ll confirm the correct version.

Can they be quickly removed when I leave the motorcycle in the city?

Yes, with the LOBOO Q7 quick-release mount, sold separately. It has a keyed lock and a watertight detachable connector, so you can remove the lights without tools and take them with you.

It is also useful off-road, as it keeps the lenses from being exposed to branches on narrower sections.

Is the product covered by a warranty?

Yes. All LOBOO products sold on Endurrad are covered by the statutory 24-month consumer guarantee of conformity, in accordance with applicable law. In the event of a lack of conformity, we will handle the claim with the manufacturer.
